The Framework for Operations, Administration and Maintenance (OAM)
within the MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) describes how Maintenance
Entity Group Intermediate Points (MIPs) may be situated within
network nodes at the incoming and outgoing interfaces.
This document describes a way of forming OAM messages so that they
can be targeted at MIPs on incoming or MIPs on outgoing interfaces,
forwarded correctly through the "switch fabric", and handled
efficiently in node implementations where there is no distinction
between the incoming and outgoing MIP.
The material in this document is provided for discussion within the
MPLS-TP community in the expectation that this idea or some similar
mechanism will be subsumed into a more general MPLS-TP OAM document.
This document is a product of a joint Internet Engineering Task Force
(IETF) / International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication
Standardization Sector (ITU-T) effort to include an MPLS Transport
Profile within the IETF MPLS and PWE3 architectures to support the
capabilities and functionalities of a packet transport network.
